OpenLaszlo is an open source platform for creating zero-install web applications with the user interface capabilities of desktop client software.
OpenLaszlo programs are written in XML and JavaScript and transparently compiled to Flash and, with OpenLaszlo 4, DHTML. The OpenLaszlo APIs provide animation, layout, data binding, server communication, and declarative UI. An OpenLaszlo application can be as short as a single source file, or factored into multiple files that define reusable classes and libraries.
OpenLaszlo is "write once, run everywhere." An OpenLaszlo application developed on one machine will run on all leading Web browsers on all leading desktop operating systems.

A Plan for a Sensible Energy Future...
As we move into an era of oil depletion and energy constraint, everything from transportation to medicine to food to climate change response strategies will be affected. Almost everything we do is dependent on oil.
The transition to a future of reduced oil supply will require the development of clean, reliable, and renewable energy sources and reduced oil production and consumption. The Oil Depletion Protocol will allow us to accomplish both - simply, conservatively, and cooperatively. It is a plan for a sensible energy future.

Making Cross-Viewer SVG Content Development Easier
Posted by stelt apropos tools on Tue Aug 1st, 2006 at 16:44:03 BST
To ease the development of cross-viewer SVG content I have started the SVG devbar, a collection of handy bookmark(let)s and a non-blank document to start coding SVG with. Both are meant to prevent and pinpoint bugs in your code and work around viewer shortcomings.
Though this combination has a few very simple but handy functions already, it is in its very early stages. Several planned features are not yet implemented. Next to just bookmarklets, it might also grow into a rich Firefox SVG extension for example.
Feedback is very welcome (e.g. feature requests, bugreports, offers of help).

Below are cheat sheets (also known as reference cards) that you can print out and keep by your computer. There is a cheat sheet for just about anything and we aim to have the best coverage of cheat sheets available on the web. Let us know if there is one that we are missing.
